Taco Time

This container is actually a taco shell warmer you can buy in a local grocery store for about $2. The depth and shape of the container is nice, the
design is simple, and it was easy to turn into a planter.

To do this, take the lid, remove the handle at the top of the lid with a utility knife, and then turn the lid upside down. The bottom of the container fits just right into the lid and the whold thing rests quite stable on it. Don't forget to drill holes in the bottom of the container so water can get out.
Lastly, you can remove the lid to get rid of excess water or just tip the container a round a bit to let the water drip out the hole where the handle was.

In this container you are looking at chives. Not a great display of them, but we are still learning how to grow herbs (expanding our horizons beyond ornimentals).
